V.Rossi Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Could you not try towels soaked in boiling water around the pipes? Once they cool down chuck them in the microwave for 20 secs and presto, your good to go again...and wont cost you 50p+ per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
